Khartoum Governor Ahmed Osman Hamza inspected the rehabilitation work of the Muqrin water plant, as part of the state's efforts to restore water services and raise the operational capacity of the plant after the damage suffered during the war.
During a field tour accompanied by officials from the State Water Authority and the management of the station, the governor reviewed the progress of the ongoing maintenance and rehabilitation to increase production and reach the maximum capacity during the coming period.
Hamza directed to accelerate the pace of work so that the station is fully operational before Eid al-Adha, stressing the commitment of the state government to provide generators and gasoline fuel to ensure the stability of the water supply and the uninterrupted service.
For his part, the director of the station, Engineer Sayed Ahmed Mohammed Al-Sharif, said that the rehabilitation processes are proceeding stably, pointing out that the most important current challenges are the fluctuation of electricity, pointing out that the governor pledged to address the problem radically.
He added that the employees of the plant were able to raise the current production to 85,000 cubic meters per day despite the significant damage to the facility, revealing a plan to increase production to 100,000 cubic meters per day before the Eid al-Adha holiday.
He explained that efforts will continue after Eid to restore the full design capacity of the station, which is 135,000 cubic meters per day, which contributes to enhancing the water supply and meeting the needs of the residents of the capital.
